John McCain is an OLD, creepy, racist bitch

1. McCain says bigoted things about Obama.
Meanwhile, Obama's opponents are also laying the groundwork for blaming him if race "becomes an issue" during the campaign.
2. Obama points out what McCain is doing.

So nobody really thinks that Bush or McCain have a real answer for the challenges we face, so what they're going to try to do is make you scared of me. You know, he's not patriotic enough. He's got a funny name. You know, he doesn't look like all those other Presidents on those dollar bills, you know. He's risky. That's essentially the argument they're making.

3. McCain says Obama is playing the race card.

"Barack Obama has played the race card, and he played it from the bottom of the deck. It's divisive, negative, shameful and wrong."
